Hello all!
I've been busy reading this wonderful, wonderful forum and have a few questions and comments.
1. I installed KissAssist and went to town. It seemed to work okay at first, but medding was tricky. I drive with a bard, and have two others and pulls are frequent. I had issues with the boxes simply medding through fights, skipping casts, etc. I found the downshits thread where having your casters sit is discussed. This has helped immensely, but I am wondering: How do I make sure both characters execute their commands on every single pull? Am I looking at broadcasting a trigger phrase?
Ex. Mobs in camp, tanking all of them with a damage shield. Assist bard starts automatically. Now, sometimes the druid will do Stinging Swarm (once, as commanded), Flame Lick (once, as commanded) and snare at the required percentage. But, not always. Sometimes he just sits there. This is my biggest problem. The cleric I want to just toss a nuke once per mob, and med/heal as appropriate. He sometimes nukes. Also a problem.
2. What to do about aggro? Often times, since there are multiple mobs in camp and NOT mezzed (thanks, damage shields!), the cleric gets some heal agro. Do I just heal through it? I suppose I could have it cast Divine Aura, but that's a once every 15 minutes solution. Just deal?
3. Using other macros: How do I load a macro on the fly? Documentation is buried somewhat deep here, so my apologies if it's covered somewhere obvious that I missed.
4. I had to unload MQ2Twist because I like to manually twist on my bard, and it seemed to be breaking /melody? Is that normal?
Thanks for any help!
